Pennsylvania Car Insurance Coverage
You can't always prevent an accident, but you can protect yourself and your family by purchasing the right Pennsylvania car insurance at the right levels. It is not only important to have adequate car insurance coverage, but to understand your coverage.
It is not our law firm’s intention to tell you how to spend your money for car insurance. That decision is best left to you and your insurance company representative. However, we believe that making educated decisions will help you get the most protection for your dollar.
Since the Pennsylvania Auto Insurance Law was enacted in 1990, we've gathered a lot of valuable information that we can pass on to you - the kind of information you need to make educated decisions about your car insurance coverage. Remember, you always have the right to change your insurance coverage.

A word of caution: Before you sign any Pennsylvania car insurance papers, make sure you understand what you are signing. In most cases, when you sign your name to a car insurance document, you are signing away your rights.
In other words, you are not signing to receive a coverage, you are signing to waive that coverage option. This can be a serious mistake. You really need to understand what rights you are being asked to waive. If you are not sure of what is being asked of you, call your insurance company representative.
If you have any further questions after you've read this information, please contact your insurance company representative.

This guide is NOT a complete summary of the Pennsylvania Auto
Insurance Law. It is designed to highlight certain important features
of this law and should not be considered legal advice. Everyone has
different insurance needs. If you have any questions concerning your
coverage, please contact your insurance agent. Pennsylvania's Auto
Insurance Law was patterned after a similar law in Michigan. Because
our law is still relatively new, we refer to Michigan case law for
some of the examples used in this Consumer Guide.
